HELIOLED was born from the Heliopolis project, digitalizing coloured light – previously produced in an analogue way. The Heliopolis project still represents an interesting case both for the content it produced, and for the planning methodology it used.
The lamp was born after a creative workshop that took place in the Franciscan sanctuary of Greccio in 1994. Over there a team of designers and philosophers worked on the themes of light, colours and psychophysical health, summarizing what was felt to be the simplest and the most efficient solution to recreate in a lamp the colour shades that the sun produces in the course of a day.
HELIOLED, table lamp with white and coloured scattered light. It uses 5 LED light sources of 1W each. Base in die-cast aluminum lacquered with epoxy powders. Available finishes: glossy black and glossy white. Diffusers in acid opal white Murano glass.
